Hyrde — David Lawrence

Hyrde had been forced to grow up fast. Agyran raiders had seen to that. The family home and close-knit community that she’d known are far behind her. There has been no place to lay her head since.Not that she hasn’t tried to get off the tracks and byways, to exchange the hedgerows for a bed, and her worn blanket and dry leaves for clean cotton sheets. But the Everlight has gifted her, and called her to aid a hunted people: the Arfolc. Her days and nights are given over to the all-consuming task.Hyrde’s power has grown ever greater. But so has that of the Nomun magelord, Ameldian. He now has the means to finish off the Arfolc remnant. The approaching confrontation will decide… can Hyrde and those she protects survive, or will the Nomun champion finally fulfil his vow to destroy them all?
